Alar Pinching

Description

Alar pinching, also known as “nostril sidewall pinched inward,” “alar rim retraction,” “alar notching,” or “pinched nasal tip,” refers to a condition where the outer edge or sidewall of the nostril collapses or curves inward, giving the nose a narrow, triangular, or uneven appearance. This issue can be caused by genetics, previous nose injuries, or most commonly, prior rhinoplasty surgery that removed too much cartilage or tissue, leaving the nostrils with insufficient support. Aside from affecting facial harmony and confidence, alar pinching can also cause practical problems like difficulty breathing, nasal valve collapse, snoring, and a feeling of nasal blockage. Treatment often involves advanced revision rhinoplasty techniques such as cartilage grafting, nostril reconstruction, and improved nasal valve support. If you’re experiencing nostril collapse, a pinched nose, or difficulty breathing after rhinoplasty, South Korea’s experienced cosmetic surgeons are global leaders in providing natural-looking and functional correction for alar pinching and related conditions.

The clinic is committed to offering the highest level of care using safe and effective methods. Eyelid Surgery Double Eyelid Surgery (In-Fold): In this procedure, the surgeon creates a double eyelid by making an incision along the natural crease, resulting in a well-defined upper eyelid line. It is ideal for those who want to enhance the natural appearance of their eyes with minimum scarring. Double Eyelid Surgery (Out-Fold): This technique involves making an incision on the outer fold of the eyelid to create a more prominent crease. It suits individuals looking for a more pronounced double eyelid. Double Eyelid Surgery (In-Out Fold): This hybrid approach combines elements of both in-fold and out-fold techniques to achieve a balanced and natural-looking double eyelid. It is tailored to each patient’s unique eye shape and preferences. Nose Surgery Rhinoplasty: Rhinoplasty, or a 'nose job,' reshapes the nose to improve its appearance and function. It can straighten the bridge, reshape the tip, reduce or increase the size, and correct breathing issues. Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty: For those seeking minor adjustments, this procedure uses fillers to temporarily alter the shape and contour of the nose. It offers an alternative to traditional rhinoplasty with minimal downtime. Breast Surgery Breast Augmentation: This procedure involves the use of breast implants or fat transfer to increase the size of the breasts. It enhances body contour and can boost self-confidence. Breast Reduction: Breast reduction surgery removes excess breast tissue and skin to achieve a breast size proportional to your body. It alleviates discomfort and improves overall body alignment. Facial Contouring Jaw Reduction Surgery: This surgery reduces the size of the jawbone to create a slimmer, more feminine facial profile. It’s ideal for those seeking to soften a square jawline. Cheekbone Reduction Surgery: This procedure aims to reduce the prominence of the cheekbones to give a gentler and more balanced appearance to the face. Body Contouring Liposuction: Liposuction removes excess fat deposits from various parts of the body to improve shape and contour. Common areas include the abdomen, thighs, hips, and arms. Tummy Tuck: Also known as abdominoplasty, this procedure removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen and tightens the underlying muscles for a firmer, flatter stomach. Anti-Aging Treatments Facelifts: A facelift rejuvenates the face by tightening loose skin, smoothing deep folds, and lifting sagging areas. It's designed to give a more youthful and refreshed appearance. Botox and Fillers: These non-surgical treatments smooth out wrinkles, enhance facial contours, and add volume to areas like the cheeks and lips. They provide immediate results with minimal downtime. Unique Plastic Surgery Clinic prioritizes patient safety and satisfaction, offering personalized consultations and post-operative care to ensure the best outcomes.
